Addressing a Washington, D.C. webcast on April 27, Lyndon LaRouche laid stress on
the need to act immediately to head off Weimar-style hyperinflation. Already, the
speculators’ shift into commodities like copper, petroleum, and gold has begun to
create a price curve that looks like that of Weimar Germany in the early months of
1923. LaRouche responded to probing questions from the audience, and from listeners
over the Internet, especially on what exactly he thinks can be done to prevent a catastrophic collapse of the world economy. Using
the precedent of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s actions in the last Depression, LaRouche
said, it can be done. “We did it before, we can do it again.We were poor then, we’re
poor now. We got better then; we can do better now. And that’s what this is all about.”

Lyndon LaRouche told his webcast audience that if Dick Cheney is not removed soon,
it will not be possible to make the kind of changes that are required in economic
policymaking, “which are changes that are consistent with what Franklin Roosevelt
began to do in early March of 1933, at the time of his inauguration. Unless we go
back to Franklin Roosevelt, and do it this year, this nation is not going to make
it. We’re going to Hell—and we’re going to take the rest of the world with us.” Fortunately,
there are some signs of renewed momentum to dump the Vice President.
